“It was just an allergy. You were already hospitalized, so what else did you want?” Max wrapped his arm around Shannon’s shoulders, his sharp gaze cold.

Janice was in disbelief. He actually spoke to her in such a manner! In the past, although he was a little cold to her, he had never used such a disgusted tone.

“Max, don’t you know what our relationship is? Have you ever thought about me? I…”

Before Janice could finish speaking, Max had already dragged Shannon out, leaving her alone. At that moment, she felt as though she had been struck by lightning. She looked at Max and Shannon’s disappearing figures, and suddenly realized that Shannon had been deliberately agitating her.

How could she be so stupid to fall into that woman’s trap?

“Janice, are you alright?” Janice’s good friend panicked when she saw the scene before her.

Janice turned to look at her good friend, then suddenly sniggered.

It had been three years, but not only did she fail to kill Shannon, she even allowed that woman to become smarter. Could it be that Shannon had returned just to snatch Max away from her?

“Max is mine. He can only be mine.” Janice suddenly stood up and walked out, her eyes filled with ruthlessness.

Shannon sat in Max’s car, and the image of Janice from earlier reverberated in her mind.

She looked at Max’s impeccably handsome profile and suddenly thought, if she had been smarter three years ago, would she have been able to defend her marriage?

However, this thought vanished almost immediately. She knew that nothing would change, because she was the one who fell in love first, and she had heard the saying that the person who fell in love first would always be on the losing end ina relationship.

Losing the love of her life made her lose her mind, so back then, she didn’t know how to deal with Janice.

“president, we’re at the hospital.” Jake’s voice pulled Shannon out of her thoughts.

She frowned. Hospital? There was no need for that.

“L don’t need to go to the hospital. I just want to go home.” Shannon didn’t intend to get out of the car.

She had thought it through. The most important thing now was to deal with the matters directly.

“Go and get your wound treated first.” Max held her hand and pulled her out of the car.

However, he didn’t follow her in. Shannon walked quickly towards the Emergency Department. When Janice pushed her down, she did suffer another cut.

“Get someone to disperse the reporters at her house and reduce the attention on her law firm,” Max ordered his assistant coldly.

Shannon was sent home when she came out. Unexpectedly, there were no more reporters at her door.

She entered the house and took off her coat. Suddenly, she realized that there was a piece of paper in her pocket.

Acheck? When did he give it to her?

Shannon held the blank cheque and sneered. He was so generous to her, wasn’t he afraid that she would take all his money away?

She tore the check into pieces and threw it into the rubbish bin. Then, she took out some cash from her safe.

Fortunately, she had prepared some cash for emergencies. Otherwise, she would really have to use his check.

Shannon took the money and went to the police station. Unexpectedly, Pete was being escorted out of the station when she reached.

“Casey! Why are you here? Have you settled the reporters? The police don’t have enough evidence, and since I’m British, they can’t do anything to me.” Pete was pleasantly surprised to see Shannon.

However, Shannon was teary-eyed. She went forward to hug Pete. She had really implicated him this time.

“Pete, listen to me. We can’t stay here anymore. Go back to Britain. Right now, we can’t keep the law firm open anymore, and I’ll have to find a job at other firms, so I can’t take care of you right now.” Shannon explained, as she walked Pete to his door.

Shannon stayed at home for two days before she went to look for Gerald. She was definitely going to appeal, not only because Gerald could clearly win the lawsuit, but also because she had to see Janice suffer the consequences of her actions.

“No, I won’t agree to this. Neither will my ex-wife. I’m only here to see you because I wanted to apologize for the trouble that my ex-wife caused you.” Gerald refused to appeal.

Shannon returned home alone, feeling extremely uncomfortable in the empty house.

‘There was only one way to persuade Gerald to appeal. Gerald needed to have enough money to ensure that his company’s operations were not affected despite the freezing of his assets.

But where was she going to get so much money? The little amount that she had was definitely insufficient.

She had to think of a way quickly, because Janice would definitely make a move again. At that time, she would be in trouble.

At the same moment, Janice was indeed cooking up some plans. She thought that she had won this round, but she didn’t expect to lose so thoroughly.

Not only had the Yard family suffered heavy losses, Max had also not returned for a few days.

She had to think of another way to deal with Shannon!

At this moment, Max was in his house in Azure Harbor. After working for the entire day, he looked at the huge fish tank by the wall.

Shannon’s face appeared in his mind, and he suddenly felt hungry.

Max subconsciously picked up his coat and walked out, ordering the driver to go to Shannon’s neighborhood.

For the first time ever, he stood in front of a woman’s house and rang the doorbell for a long time, but no one came to open the door. However, her phone was clearly ringing in the house.

“Investigate where she went. I want to know exactly where she is in ten minutes’ time.” Max walked to the car with a sullen expression on his face, and ordered Jake.

Within five minutes, Jake drove them to a restaurant.

Shannon was feeling hungry at home, so she went out. Because the reporters were still incessantly calling her phone, she bought a new one and brought it with her.

The delicious dishes were right in front of her, but she didn’t have an appetite. Now, the only person who could help her come up with the money Gerald needed was Pete; he would definitely lend her money.

“Pete, can you lend me twenty million dollars first? I need the money urgently.”

Max had just walked into the restaurant and was near Shannon when he overheard her phone conversation. He immediately stopped in his tracks. She was borrowing money?

He had given her a few cheques previously, but she had used none of them. Now, she was borrowing money from an outsider!

“Why didn’t you accept my check?” Max walked up and grabbed Shannon’s phone.

Shannon was shocked. When she saw that it was Max, she frowned deeply. Why was he here?

“Why would I accept it? Who are you to me?” Shannon snatched her phone and walked out.

She was so unlucky, meeting him just as she was feeling vexed.

“Stop right there!” Max chased after Shannon.

Shannon turned around to look at Max with a hint of disgust in her eyes.

“Tdon’t want to fight with you in public. Stop following me.” Shannon was feeling even angrier at the thought that all the difficulties she was facing were caused by her marriage to Max..
